Is the "Minimally Conscious State" Patient Minimally Self-Aware? [PDF]
Front Psychol, 2020 Patients in a Minimally Conscious State (MCS) constitute a subgroup of awareness impaired patients who show minimal signs of awareness as opposed to patients in a Vegetative State who do not exhibit any such signs. While the empirical literature is rich in studies investigating either overt or covert signs of awareness in such patients the question of ...

The Minimally Conscious State [PDF]
Archives of Neurology, 2007 Limited epidemiologic data undermine the identification of patients in a minimally conscious state (MCS) and needed health policy analysis. Based on the natural history of disorders of consciousness and the evolution of MCS, we propose 2 models to characterize MCS epidemiology: a severity model to integrate diagnostic and severity of injury codes, such

Statistical learning in patients in the minimally conscious state [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2022 Abstract When listening to speech, cortical activity can track mentally constructed linguistic units such as words, phrases, and sentences. Recent studies have also shown that the neural responses to mentally constructed linguistic units can predict the outcome of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC). In healthy individuals,

Neurophysiological and behavioural responses to music therapy in vegetative and minimally conscious states [PDF]
, 2013 Assessment of awareness for those with disorders of consciousness (DOC) is a challenging undertaking, due to the complex presentation of the population, where misdiagnosis rates remain high.

Spectral signatures of reorganised brain networks in disorders of consciousness [PDF]
, 2014 Theoretical advances in the science of consciousness have proposed that it is concomitant with balanced cortical integration and differentiation, enabled by efficient networks of information transfer across multiple scales. Here, we apply graph theory to
